 Vapour Compression Refrigeration
Refrigeration 
 Refrigeration is a process of removal of heat from a 
substance at a temperature lower than the 
surrounding with the aid of external work. 
 In a refrigeration system, the rate at which the heat is 
absorbed in a cycle from the interior space to be 
cooled is called Refrigerating Effect.
*In a refrigerator, a medium called Refrigerant 
continuously extracts the heat from the 
refrigerator which is to be kept cool at 
temperatures less than the atmosphere & 
finally rejects to it. 
*Refrigerant acts as a heat exchange medium. 
*e.g.- Ammonia, Freon, Methyl Chloride, Carbon 
dioxide, Isobutane.

Unit of Refrigeration & Ice making 
Capacity 
 The capacity of a refrigeration system is expressed in 
tons of refrigeration which is the unit of refrigeration. 
 A ton of refrigeration is the quantity of heat absorbed 
in order to form one ton of ice in 24 hours when the 
initial temperature of water is 0属c. 
 1 Ton of Refrigeration = 210 kJ/min = 3.5kW 
 Ice making capacity is the capacity of the refrigerating 
system to make ice beginning from water to solid. 
 S.I. unit of ice making capacity is kg/hr.
The coefficient of performance(briefly written as C.O.P.) 
is the ratio of desired effect to the work input. 
Mathematically, 
(C.O.P.)refrigerator = Desired effect = Q2____

Advantages 
 Very mature technology. 
 It has very less running cost. 
 It has smaller size for the given capacity of refrigeration. 
 It can be employed over a large range of temperatures. 
 The C.O.P. is very high. 
Disadvantages 
 Many systems still use HCFC refrigerants, which contribute 
to depletion of ozone layer. 
 Initial cost is high. 
 The prevention of leakage of refrigerant is the major 
problem in vapour compression refrigeration.
